4-0

Gio stinks this year.

What an absolute abomination of a 2 strike pitch. Not getting that extension signed, looks better and better.

Giolito is so disappointing this year.  Can we get sticky substances allowed again 

Hanging change up right down the middle...

Done.  Going outside to drink beer.

I'm losing more and more faith in Giolito with each game.  I guess Donaldson was right.

First Patriots Day and now the 4th of July. 

 

Its clear that Giolito just hates America

When you split the first 2 games of a series against a dogshit team & then Giolito is pitching the rubber match, you just expect so much more than this crap.

Change Up location 

I miss TOR Gio. 

So many garbage 2 strike pitches all fucking game. He needs to get his shit together. 

Can we maybe try Grandal at catcher with Giolito going forward 

I dunno, try learning a 3d pitch.

 

Fuck this game.  Giolito is to inconsistent. Same with the offense.  It will be 6-0 after this inning and we'll see shit at bats the rest of the game .

Detroit is one of those "good, bad teams". They are a tough team to play against. Hell they've swept/taken series wins over quite a few good teams this year. 

Well done Leury 

The book has been out on a 2 strike changeup for a long time this year.  Everyone is sitting on it.

Yup he had Candelario 0-2 and gave up a single and that's what started this whole inning. 

The most disappointing part of Lucas and Keuchel's struggles are they are the two starters anchoring this rotation next year also. 

It's going to be very difficult to let Rodon and or Lynn walk.

Not sure how Collins is calling a great game when we're screwing up 0-2 counts this often.

The pitcher can miss their location some times . It doesn't always have to be Collins fault . I don't think he's that good either.
